Go-Bucks! Posted May 29, 2019 Author #1830 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Am in Rhodes, Greece...beautiful and laid back! Got a mani/pedi and now I'm getting a foot massage...so relaxing! While I have free fast wifi I'll try to post some pics from Petra, Luxor and Israel. Notice the Egyptian policeman sleeping in his car...great security! We got a chuckle about that. The mummy is some pharaoh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See you on the ship. Kathy M. (zoncom). I'm not Bob, but we had great air arrangements with O's air...no Claudia (we had Stephanie, now Amy, and Tricia)...I don't remember a Terry Burke but we started in LA so maybe he/she was on before that. The number of solos changes each segment...I think there are 52 on this segment. Edited May 29, 2019 by Go-Bucks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks/ I don't remember anymore but it was a ship tour. It was really, really good!! Totally up close with the elephants for quite awhile. I think it was the only one that included bathing the elephants...maybe that will help you find the same one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katz Posted May 30, 2019 #1840 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Go Bucks---Hi Lisa, It's Kathy from the Vietnam tours. I am curious about the picture you posted with the Israeli men with the black bans and what looks like head lamps. What are they doing? Tell Connie that I like her new hair color.

(Thanks, Paulchili...😊). I have to say that going up to the Western Wall was a very moving experience...tears flowed when I touched the wall and prayed. Seeing and being a part of all the Biblical sights were the highlight of this cruise and hiring our own private guide was a great decision. BTW, it was Guided Tours Israel and our guide was a local man named Ehud...the agency is rated #1 on TripAdvisor. Good to hear from you, Kathy!! Stay in touch...I really enjoyed our time together.

It was WAY too crowded, especially in Oia....although Santorini was pretty, I much preferred Rhodes. Rhodes' prices were lower, it was more laid back, fewer people and so much easier to get from ship-to-shore-to-ship.

You get all the views and none of the people :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
